Tifflynn032418 (59 KP) rated Scarlet (The Lunar Chronicles, #2) in Books

Jul 17, 2018

I am huge fan of the lunar chronicles series. Just as the first book, scarlet surpassed my expectations. It's a refreshing and unique take on the fairy tale of little red riding hood. The book also continues with the story of Cinderella from the first novel of the series. The story keeps you interested the entire time and has simple twists and turns to keep you coming back for more. The characters are good kids but flawed in a way that lets you remember they are just like us, you cant help but love them all. The villain of the series is so vile the reader just cant wait to see her get what she deserves. I would recommend this series to anyone who loves the ya genre. It is also clean enough for my ten year old to read. I can not wait to read the next novel in the series: Cress.

Movie Rating

The Rock is great, as always. Except maybe that tooth fairy thing. (1 more)

Great special effects!

This review is going to be very simple. Because this is a simple movie.

Sometimes, you just want to see a "I don't have to think about anything, and I can still be entertained" movie. This is one of them. I mean, it's based on a video game with the same idea. Just smash! Three giant monsters, smashing a city. Some silly T.M.N.T. backstory about a mutagen changing an albino gorilla to a white King Kong. And then "Let them fight!" That's it! It's held together by Dwayne Johnson & the others in the film. To be honest, I don't even remember who's in the movie with him. But it doesn't matter. The film is fun. Maybe a little intense for little kids. But some days, you just want to sit back & watch some great special effects & big things crushing little things. When that happens, here's a film for you.

First Jewel Book

I had no expectation when I picked this book up. I knew about the author but I didn't read any reviews about this book. And when I started it I didn't want to put it down I wanted to finish it.
Holly Black does an amazing job mixing the human side into the fairy side. She writes it like fairies could possibly be right. There were surprises in the book that I didn't see coming but I was happy for. The action and the emotion in the book makes you actually feel for the character like they are real.
I think the best part to this book and all of Holly's books is she doesn't make a realistic character she makes a realistic world. She puts in real world situations that actually happen and it brings the story to life even more.
Darkest Part Of the Forest, is in my Jewel Collection.
